Objective: verify that all science systems are working properly and ready to do science. Work areas: Puget Sound, Eastern Bank, and offshore Type of work: exercise all science systems, including winches, cranes, computers, network, sonars, science seawater, TSG/DO/Fl, CTD, met sensors, data logging, communications, reefers, freezers, ice maker, -80 freezers, lab spaces, cargo hoist, DI water, salinometer

Operational Plan Description

15. Operational plan: Cruise Tracks and Station Locations. Please provide as complete a description as possible. Include with this plan, or separately, a complete list of stations with ID, Latitude, Longitude, depth and other information such as type of sampling/operations as appropriate. Use the text box below or upload separate documents as needed.

Operational Plan Description

No response

Will the vessel be operating within 200 miles of a foreign country?   Yes

If yes, Please list them here:
Canada

16. Will you be contacting Native communities to inform them of your intended icebreaker research activities?  No

17. Will Marine Mammal Protection Act, NEPA or Endangered Species Act consultation or permitting be required?  No

18a. Cruise Plan and Description of Operations:
Provide as much detail as possible about the type of operations and sampling to be conducted, daily schedule and hours of operation, type of equipment to be used and any other information that will help us prepare for this cruise. Use additional pages or send corrected drafts as necessary. If this is a multi-investigator cruise, please include a list of Co-PI's who will be submitting operational science plans:

Multibeam patch test: I'd like to allow 12 hours in the "deep water" site. Can be done at night.
Winch tests: at the deep water site w/suitable weight on the end of each wire. Should be done in daylight.
CTD: One lowering at the deep water site, after the winch test. Better done in daylight but not absolutely necessary.
XBT: This is probably invisible with regard to time. Can be done on station during winch tests (between lowerings) or while underway in transit. We will probably take more than one.
ADCPs: We will groom both ADCPs but depending on when we get the loaner OS150 installed, that may not happen until the transit to Honolulu. When ever it happens, we will need moderate water depths (50-100m). This can be done "at night" in eastern bank. Allow 4 hours for each ADCP.
Bow Tower: I think the first assembly "at sea" should be done either at anchor or perhaps while we are fueling? Once it is assembled, "we" (the command?) can think about what (if any) sea state they are willing to get underway while it is in place.
Knudsen: will be done while underway. Verify proper operation. Potentially make a transducer impedance measurement. Potentially make a transmit power measurement.
Optical Mast for HLY1001: Install on flying bridge and in ASB prior to departure. Raise and lower while in stable state (perhaps prior to departure) and evaluate. Potentially raise for extended periods during shakedown. If the ASB and it's mast are ready for shakedown, potentially evaluate launch and recover with mast and (dummy) sensors in place.
Stern tube water sampling: Install and test.
Met sensors: we will do "laps" (some pattern) around the met buoy at Eastern Bank, can be done at night. Would like to do it in more than one set of wind conditions.
